Service-oriented OS
Cloud-native technologies are gaining traction and are poised to be the foundation on which the next-generation cloud computing is built. This departure from traditional technologies poses great challenges to the services and original design of operating systems. The OS services and interfaces need to be innovated around the cloud-native serverless computing and modern application architectures. Our research in a service-oriented OS focuses on the software isolation mechanism of the OS, and the security and verification mechanism of the managed runtime and bytecode. The lab aspires to improve the OS architecture and services, cater to the requirements of cloud-edge-end applications, and build a new OS ecosystem.
Hardware/Software Co-design System
Research in this area focuses on improving compute capabilities of an OS running on heterogenous chips, and developing performance analysis capabilities for the OS. The research centers on improving performance of hardware and software algorithms in the compute, storage, and network fields. Furthermore, feasibility studies are also performed on heterogenous processor programming frameworks and toolchain solutions. We aim to design the next-generation cloud-native serverless execution unit with hardware/software co-design, building an ecosystem where the heterogenous hardware is better coordinated with software and meeting the requirements for cloud-edge-end services.
